THE HIGHEST SUCCESS.
The Kind of Life Which Can Not Be De-
feated by Outward Disasters.

The Kind of Life Which Can Not Be De-
feated by Outward Disasters.
There is nothing more inspiring than
the story of triumphant life; life
that overcomes great difficulties, works
itself clear of sharp limitations. and
issues at last in large, free activity.
1t is an old story, but it remains the
one story of which men never tire, but
which seems to assuage thirst of the
soul. For the end of life is freedom
and power, and those of us who miss
these supreme results of patience and
toll and character feel that we have
been defrauded of that which was our
due. The old stories of magic carry q
deep meaning under their wild extrav-
agances; they betray the mighty pas
sion of men for supremacy over things
material and over inferior orders of
life. The man with genii at his COM
mand could build palaces in night,
and rejoice in a marvellous mastery
over the forces against which so many
of his fellows seem to measure their
strength in vain. These magical sue
cesses are only dreams of the real sue
cesses which all men and women crave;
which the noblest and most aspiring
must conquer, or lose utterly the joy
and sweetness of living. These sue
cesses are, fortunately, not external,
though they are generally accom-
panied by visible trophies; they are
achievements of character, and are in
dependent of conditions and largely of
human recognition. The man whose
life, outwardly all defeat, is steadily
expanding in its interest and sympa-
thies, steadily growing in power to
bear and suffer and be strong, has the
blessed consciousness of coming into
his kingdom. No outward disaster, no
external obstacle or limitation, can
ever defeat a true life; it can escape
all these things as the bird escapes the
perils of the snare and the net by fly
ing above them. This highest of sll
successes lies within the grasp of every
earnest man and woman, and it is
rarely without attestations of its pres
ence and value, even in the eyes of
those who take small account of
spiritual things. There is a force which
streams from q noble nature which is
as irresistible and pervasive as tho
sunlight. The warmth and the vitality
of such natures, while they invigorate
the strongest men and women about
them, penetrate to the heart of ciouded
and obscure lives, and minister to their
need. There is no success so satisfying
as that which is embodied in ones
character, and so can not be taken
from him, and the influence of which,
embodied in the character of others, is
also indestructible.- Christian Union.
